I've been lucky enough to be able to work out of a home office. But it also is a place I get to be with my junk while I'm working. The plants are there only for this long cold winter and maybe in August when it warms up they go back on the deck.
I was curious if there are other guys who have set up their office surrounded with the stuff that keeps you going? Sure would like to see how many of us nuts are out there. Les

Looks great. Wouldn't work for me. I have a tough enough time as is being focused and not day dreaming.

I showed my wife your very cool office to prove to her that there are other guys who work in an office that could pass as an gas station. I totally agree with the most awesome shelf system use. Thank you so much for sharing.!
